No time to read the full TRECA results paper? Here's a fab animation giving a summary in 2 minutes: youtu.be/kAHVzcwIqB4
Thanks @morphHQ
TRECA main results paper now in BMC Medicine: rdcu.be/df4lR . Using multimedia instead of printed sheets increased trial recruitment in children & teens. Pooled data, 3 SWATs: OR 1.54 (1.05, 2.28) p=0.03. Overall, mutlimedia recruitment rate 69%, printed sheet rate 64%.
Our SR on video animations for informing patients. 38 mostly small trials comparing animation with other formats. Consistent positive effects on knowledge; mixed findings on attitudes & behaviours. Better trials needed! doi.org/10.3389/fdgth.2022.1…
SWAT paper #2 from TRECA published, set within the FORCE trial. Multimedia information had non-significant effects on trial recruitment compared to printed sheets, but found easier to understand and evaluated more positively: bmjopen.bmj.com/content/12/7…

Excited that our latest paper from the @TRECAstudy is published! We describe the benefits of using an interactive ranking exercise in interviews to help co-design multimedia websites. And it’s OPEN ACCESS! 🙂@UoL_HC_Research #CYP #HealthTech

Great to be involved in this important study, led by @GilliesKatie
How should trial teams share trial results with participants at the end of a trial? Read our co-produced evidence based recommendations just published in @BMJ_Open w/ @Bruhn_Hanne @MarionKCampbell @EntwistleV @Juliet_Tizzard bmjopen.bmj.com/content/12/3…
New TRECA SWAT paper, set in Thermic-3 children's cardiac surgery trial: dx.doi.org/10.12688/f1000res…
Digital, multimedia information increased recruitment (by 14%) compared to printed info, but v small SWAT, not statistically significant.

1st outcomes paper from @TRECAStudy: small RCT, teens in hypothetical setting. Multimedia vs printed trial information. Multimedia: more ratings of 'easy to understand' (80% vs 57%) & 'confident in decision' (83% vs 73%). journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

Doing @HRA_Latest training on children's research and the @TRECAStudy study is getting a big plus from @jen_preston1 (and REC members who remember it!).
(This is my cheap version of the TRECCA stuff ..)

The TRECA study is evaluating the impact of multimedia websites to provide information to CYP and their families about paediatric trials - using SWAT methodology. Our latest paper has just been published

We describe challenges faced when undertaking a series of SWATs (Study Within A Trial) in paed trials & suggest ways to overcome these.
